Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Debunking Linear Cues - cont Posted by: Jack Mankin ( MrBatspeed@aol.com ) on Fri Jan 5 09:36:25 2007 Hi Rql You state, “What is interesting to see here is how the rear elbow is away from ribs in this swing and the extension out across the plate with lead arm,this creates the wider arc to reach the outside pitch while staying connected”. – That is a very keen observation. A great hitters mechanics (forces he applies to the bat during initiation) produces trajectories of his limbs and bat that allows him to remain connected to rotation as the hands take a wider path for outside pitches. Below are clips of Sosa’s swing on an outside and middle-in pitches. Note the different trajectories of his back-elbow in the two swings. http://www.youthbaseballcoaching.com/mpg/sosa_sammy.mpeg (outside pitch) http://www.youthbaseballcoaching.com/mpg/sosa_sammy2.mpeg (middle-in pitch) Below is a 2001 post where I discuss the mechanics that produce those trajectories.

In 2001 Sosa became the first big-league player to hit more than 60 home runs in three different seasons (1998, 1999, and 2001). Samuel Peralta Sosa was born in San Pedro de Macor­s in the Dominican Republic . As a youngster Sosa shined shoes and did other odd jobs to help support his family. He decided on a career in baseball at a young age and in 1986 entered the minor league system of the Texas Rangers, playing with Sarasota of the Gulf Coast League. Three years later, in 1989, he made his debut in the major leagues with the Rangers. The Rangers traded Sosa to the Chicago White Sox during the 1989 season, and Sosa played his first full major league season with the White Sox in 1990. That year he was the only American League (AL) player to have 10 or more steals, doubles, triples, and home runs. He struggled the following year, however, and was sent to the White Sox’s minor league team in Vancouver, British Columbia, for a brief period. In March 1992 the White Sox traded Sosa to the Chicago Cubs of the National League (NL).

WinningUgly! 05-10-2004, 11:32 AM From The Chicago Tribune Feb. 28th, 1991 "I didn't hit anybody with a bottle," he said. "I swear to God." Sosa reported to camp on time Wednesday, along with just about everyone else. The only no-shows left were Ozzie Guillen, who was expected for Thursday's first full workout, and Mario Brito, who has visa problems in the Dominican Republic and is expected sometime before the summer solstice. Sosa, of course, had been mired in legal matters back home in the Dominican. His ex-wife (or his estranged wife, depending on the venue), according to reports, has accused him in the Dominican of hitting her with a rum bottle, plus other indignities. "He's here to play baseball," said manager Jeff Torborg. "That other stuff will be taken care of."

Bats: Right Throws: Right Pos: RF PHOTO GALLERY Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3 Picture 4 ... Picture 13 MORE SAMMY SOSA `S OPTIONS SAMMY SOSA `S BIOGRAPHY On September 13th 1998, Sammy Sosa At first sammy wasn't even interested in the game of baseball, his first love was boxing (which his mother did not agree with). It was his brother Jose that later convinced him to try playing baseball at the age of 14. Because his family was so poor he couldn't afford a Glove or bat so he used an empty milk carton and a stick, he then began to practice. Little did Sammy Sosa know this would all soon pay off. It was July 1985 when a baseball scout named Omar Minaya found out about Sammy when he was working out in a camp in Santo Domingo run by the Toronto Blue Jays. At the age of 16 Sammy was signed with the Texas Rangers and he gave almost his entire 3,500 bonus to his mother who is still living in the Dominican Republic. On July 29th 1990 he was traded to the Chicago White Sox (American League). Later Sammy met his wife wife Sonia in a San Pedro De Macoris disco (she was 16 at the time) And she was a dancer on a Dominican TV Variety show. Later they had four children named Keysha, Kenia , Sammy Jr and Michael . Later Sammy Sosa settled with the Chicago Cubs in 1992. At one time he was called one of the most over paid players in the game of Baseball. Sammy was once impatient at the plate and would swing at anything that came his way. There wasn't a pitch that he wouldn't swing at a few of his former temates have said, but in the later years he became more patient at the plate and his outfielding had also improved.
